I suppose it's important to point out that I, as secretary, havn't seen any sponsorships. The archives for debian-vote show only the proposal and one objection and this email. Note, the webpage doesn't seem to have been updated yet but the real archive is at /debian2/web/lists on master.

A.6.8 states (sic) that if no quorum is required it means a simple majority (effectivly a quorum of 1) is needed. -- Please cc all mailing list replies to me, also. * http://benham.net/index.html <gecko@benham.net> <>< * * Debian: Software in the Public Interest: * * Project Secretary Treasurer * * Webmaster Team * * BTS Team siteROCK: * * Lintian Team Linux Infrastructure Engineer *
